Complete Tiger Ford 260 engine believed to be from Tiger Mk 1A B382001342. Engine has casting codes C40E-6015E 5J29, stamped code 5K15M, which I decode as October 15, 1965. Valve cover tag is 6756-B19KC C4PZ-6001-CF SO-2632, which matches the production numbers in the list shared with me.

Engine complete, unknown internal condition, I have not pulled a head off. Has Sunbeam valve covers, Ford 2 barrel manifold. Front cover is off a 221, didn't come with original cover. I got it from friend who used to own 1342, which was very rusty, he sold the car with a 289 and kept this engine, eventually sold to me. Has been sitting for decades.

For rebuild. Unsure of value; $1200? Happy to talk. Engine in Berkeley CA, shipping is a hassle but we can talk.

Have a pending deal on this.

Five-bolt Ford 289 engine. Complete engine, came from a fellow Tiger owner; I rebuilt my Tiger's original 260 and this is surplus. Will fit 260 and early 289 applications with five-bolt bellhousing. Casting # C40E-6015C 4D4. Date stamp 4D9C, which I take to be April 9, 1964. Engine is complete with block, internals, heads, crank, four-barrel Ford manifold. No pushrods, though I could dig some up. Pistons are .030" over. Guy I got it from didn't run it either, so consider it for rebuild. $500 or offer.   Also have a genuine Tiger 260 if you're interested.
Shipping probably not feasible but happy to discuss. In Berkeley, CA, could take to LA on my next trip.
